Air date: Apr 02, 2024

On April 23, 1961 Judy Garland performed a program of 26 jazz standards, musical theater hits, and songs from her filmography at Carnegie Hall. The concert was recorded for Capitol Records, released as a live album, and has subsequently been dubbed “The Greatest Night in Entertainment History.” In this video, I do a deep dive on Judy at Carnegie Hall: what led up to it, what she sang, how she sang it, and the legacy that the album still carries to this day.
